Discontinuing commission tiers after June
🕑 Added 2018-05-07 20:59:58 +0000 UTC So I've been meaning to do this for awhile honestly, its been mentioned briefly before either in random post, or in streams. But I'm finally gonna go ahead and close patreon commissions after June's payment has gone through for everyone.There's been multiple problems with having patreon commissions, some of which have been going on ever since I opened them years ago. One of the problems is how they can seem unfair to those who have to wait for regular commissions to open and those pledged are guaranteed one every month. With me closing them though means that I'll have regular commissions open more frequently which makes things more fair for everyone.
Another problem is how they'd conflict with other commissions or projects, like right now I'm still trying to finish up April's commissions, but now that May's payments have gone through I now have an added ten commissions on top of the ones I'm trying to finish.
The reason I kept the patreon commissions for so long because of who is pledged to them. I'm gonna be kissing their asses here but a lot of them have been great to work with and very friendly, a lot of my favorite commission pieces have come from patreon commissioners. So it was hard for me to make this decision but I felt it needed to be done.
For those who are currently pledged to the commission tiers I hope that you understand this decision. If you no longer want to support the patreon after this that's perfectly fine. Hopefully you'll still be interested in commissioning through regular means once they're open. Thank you for sticking around and your support means a lot!
Now if you have any questions or concerns please don't be afraid to ask.

I would be lying if I said that it isn't a little dissapointing, but it makes total sense. Even as a Patreon, I did find it a bit unfair to other people, I had a lot of people always tell me how much they wanted pictures but you usually weren't open or you opened commissions too rarely. This is more fair to everyone, and I know this will help you develop even more as a artist and get far in your career. I'm personally proud of you and how far you have come, not only as a artist, but as a self-employee. Beyond being someone I pledge to, at this point you are to me a great friend, and I'll continue to support you (even if admittedly, a little less monetary haha). Thank you for the big heads ups, and thank you for being so nice to your patreons like this!
